I loved working with Nicole for over 5 years. She and I both grew together so much throughout the years. Nicole had such a good heart for everyone. She said Hi to everyone even when they didn't say it back, but she was always able to rise above. Nicole knew so many people and even encouraged me to take her places outside my comfort zone after her sister became sick. Thank you 7 Angels restaurant, Ethels Pub & Grill, Cheers and Ascension Clinic for your knowledge and patience. Nicole was always able to continue forward when needed with encouragement. She endured so much loss but always could bounce back. As much as I enjoyed working with her every day I found she taught me manybe more. I now face my heartbroken by the news of her passing. I know Otto & I will miss her and think of of her love while watching some of our favorite sports together.

I worked with Nicole when I volunteered in Ms Bergman’s classroom my junior and senior years of high school. Her smile and laughter are two things that sit in the memories of my heart. I am so thankful I got to know this sweet soul!
